How We Got Started

I love working in chicago and surrounding suburbs because the great people we meet.

The quality of the doors is very good, but the laminate covering the cabinet frames is less than top quality. Also the installation of the laminate was poor. You can see where the finishing nails were driven into the frames near the edge of the laminate, nothing was used to try and hide them.
The plastic laminate looks like a painted surface and doesnât really match the quality of the doors. Also, the inside front corners of the cabinet openings were routed using a small diameter router bit to trim them flush with the existing frames, but the corners were not finished properly after using the router bit. Some of the corners are gouged by trying to push the router bit too far into the corner.
The installer was also unprofessional. He didnât initially align all the spaces between the upper and lower doors or make sure that the doors closed properly and completely. He wasnât concerned about replacing a couple of doors that were damaged during installation. It took an additional three weeks to get the replacement doors. He didnât even bother to contact me about when the replacement doors would be delivered. I had to contact him and ask when they would be delivered.
In conclusion, I would never use this company again and would recommend against anyone else using them. Their price was a little high and their quality and performance certainly wasnât worth it.

The cabinets look great. The only "complaint" i have would be that the kitchen was left really dirty - sawdust, footprints, etc.... I was planning on and did have the kitchen professionally cleaned anyway but it would have been nice to have it passable until I could get a cleaning service in.

Response by Custom Wood Cabinet Refacing:
We take added measures to insure quality in our
installation process--including the use of plastic to cover door openings as well as covering countertops and flooring.
we do our best to insure a quality installation,
with the least amount of disruption-- as in most
remodel projects there will be some saw dust,
however-- we do try to minimize that concern.

I love working with guys who have been around for a long time and know what they are doing. I also love having the work done by the owners and not sub contracted to others. Jack was accomadating, thoughtful and very responsive.

I couldn't be more pleased with my new kitchen. The project involved cabinet refacing, new doors and drawer fronts. Installation of new sink, faucet and disposal. Totally comfortable with having the installer in my home while I was @ work all day. This was my first major home project since becoming a widow and both Ray and Jack were extremely patient and accomodating with all my questions and concerns.

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

Verify Trade License
HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.

Verify Insurance
As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.

Verification of State Business Filings
For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.

Criminal Records Search
HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.

Sex Offender Search
We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.

Bankruptcy Search
We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.

Legal Search for Civil Judgments
We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.

Liens Search
We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.

Identity Verification (SSN)
HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.

Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.

NOTE: Member service professional information confirmed as described above may change or expire over time; while HomeAdvisor attempts to maintain accurate and up-to-date information, and confirms changes when notified, we cannot guarantee that profile and screening information is accurate. Therefore, we recommend that before working with a service professional you verify that information presented is still current and/or acceptable to you.

HomeAdvisor's Screening Process

HomeAdvisor uses the following criteria to screen service professionals at the time they apply for membership in our network:

Licensing

We make sure that our service professional businesses carry any applicable state-level trade licensing for the services for which we match them to consumers.

Sex Offender Search

We check the websites that consolidate state sex offender information in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located to confirm that there is not a match based solely on the name of the owner/principal of the company.

Legal Search for Civil Judgments

We use third-party data sources to check the owner/principal of each business for bankruptcy filings, liens, and significant state-level civil legal judgments, in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located, occurring within 12 months prior to the service professional's application for membership in the HomeAdvisor network.

State Business Filings

For service professionals that are corporations or limited liability companies, we confirm that the business is registered in the state in which it is located.

Criminal Records Search

We use third party data sources to conduct a criminal search, in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located, for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business, within the three years prior to such service professional's application for membership in the HomeAdvisor network. HomeAdvisor's third-party vendor uses a national criminal database ("NCD") to screen our service professionals. The comprehensiveness of the NCD varies by state. Please be aware that the reporting in the NCD is particularly limited in the following states: AL, CO, DE, GA, ID, KS, KY, LA, ME, MA, MI, MS, MT, NE, NV, NH, NM, SD, UT, VA, VT, and WY.

Identity Verification (Social Security Number)

HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number of the business owner/principal to confirm their identity. (This applies primarily to small businesses.)

Corporate Accounts

Some Service Professionals are employees, franchisees, dealers, or independent contractors ("Corporate SP's") of larger national or corporate accounts ("Corporate Accounts"). In such event, you may be matched with the Corporate Account entity or with one of their Corporate SP's. The above screening criteria is not applicable to Corporate Accounts, and therefore, HomeAdvisor does not screen the Corporate Accounts or Corporate SP's.
